I have a few questions in my mind about it, though. I'd like to see some course maps before signing up (even though there's a detailed course description in the preliminary news release). It's going to be a two-transition race with a widely separated T1 and T2 which can be difficult with a lot of running around the day before to get your stuff prepared.

And it's about 375 miles away, which is a tough 7+ hour drive through the NY City and Hartford area for me.

Another reason to take a hard look at my 2008 calendar in the next couple of days!
